These terrifyingly huge Asian giant hornets have recently raise their notorious twitter profile. They can grow up to five centimeters in length and emit a loud noise that is impossible to ignore. They will attack anything nearby if they perceive it as a threat to their nest. They aren’t a threat to most people as you would need to be stung a couple hundred times for your life to be threatened or allergic to them. The hornet’s sting has been compared to being stabbed a scorching hot needle and the pain linger for a couple days. But the real concern about these flying assassins is that it only takes 30 murder hornets to wipe out an entire colony of honey bees, daily.

Carpenter ants are talented at destroying your home from the inside out. They dig through the wood inside your walls in order to create a network of tunnels and establish satellite nests. Ninety percent of the time, carpenter ants build nests in areas where the wood is moist or rotting. Because of that, you will commonly find their nests located in areas around your home where there is or was water damage such as the bathroom, kitchen, external walls or underneath your roof. Carpenter ants compromise the structural integrity of your home. They are not as active in late fall but if you see one it’s highly likely that they have built a nest inside your home.

Arachnophobia is an intense and irrational fear of spiders, we all have it.  Spiders commonly found in Delta homes include house spiders, wolf spiders, cellar spiders, fishing spiders, and black widow spiders. They are usually found in corners of rooms, closets, boxes, dark crevices and basements.  Spiders are common in homes in the fall during their mating season. Spiders have their purpose outdoor but not in your home. The best solution to spider control is prevention. If a spider is inside your home, it’s looking for food, mate or following other insects inside. To keep spiders outside where they belong: clean your house regularly, vacuum often and  prevent clutter.

The success of eliminating mice may depend on the personality of specific animals within a species. Braver, more lively, destructive or social mice are more likely to use baits, traps or new objects and foods. As a result, they can be eradicated quickly. But, shyer or less energetic mice can take longer to be caught. So, mice that actively avoid eradication will breed and repopulate. Bold mice don’t necessarily produce bold offspring, nor shy mice, shy offspring. As it turns out, like us humans, the next generation of mice produce a broad spectrum of personality.

Cockroaches are insects that have flat oval-shaped, spiny legs, wings (but they don’t fly) with a pair of long antennae and six long. They thrive in filthy kitchens and left unchecked, they multiple and turn everything into a nightmare. But what if they can be controlled and turned into house maids. Hence the robo cockroach, a cockroach no bigger than a large paper clip can scurries across the floor controlled by Wi-Fi – it’s a robot-roach hybrid, a hardwired biological insect – a cyborg if you will. The robo cockroach can be controlled wirelessly moving back and forth, left or right through microstimulation in the antenna nerves. Soon we all may have these cockroaches cleaning are houses, parked in the robovac stall waiting for instructions.

The Ant has become the number one pest problem in B.C.  Ants can come in through even the smallest cracks, seeking water and food in the kitchen pantry or storeroom areas. Ants leave an invisible chemical path which contains pheromones for others to follow once they detect the food source. They can nest about anywhere in and around your house; in lawns, under driveways, foundations, walls, and stumps etc. Worker ants may live days to several years and the queen may live as long as 20 years. Most retail “diy” ant control approaches only kill the ants you see. Only truly effective ant specific treatments can penetrate and destroy nests to help prevent these pests from returning. So toss out those white ant tins – they are only feeding the ants.

In B.C we have two native squirrels, the Red squirrels and Douglas squirrels and the other invasive or alien grey/black squirrel. Squirrels, be it red, grey, black or brown are ingenious, frisky and unlike many mammals they tend not to hibernate. Their role in nature is to move seeds and nuts around the forest to diversify it. A squirrel needs to eat about a half a kilo of food a week, so if the seeds, cones, and berries aren’t enough then its your bird feeder or plants that they will attack. Keeping them out of your yard sometimes requires ingenious tactics that are at everyone’s disposal. Squirrels will avoid certain items such as alliums and daffodils, chicken manure, bone meal, coyote and dog urine. They have a few enemies including crows, owls, hawks, eagles, foxes, coyotes, cats and the occasional human.

Cockroaches are the most contemptable bug – getting into your house through crevices and cracks, or carried inside in boxes, bags and second hand store items. They like warm temperatures where food and water are easily available (kitchens). These beasts are nocturnal and breed quickly when they get set-up. If you see one during the day it usually means that you are knee deep in a full blown severe infestation, its just a case of overcrowding. Like most insect, they leave pheromone trails in their feces, which interests other roaches looking for food and water sources. They can taint food with a number of different diseases and their cast-off cockroach skins, dead bodies and droppings can exacerbate allergies and asthma attacks. Bottom line – call in a pro to take care of them.

Spider numbers typically peak during late summer and fall, during their mating season. The best solution to spider control is prevention. Most spiders will be found outside your home in cob webs around your house, wood piles, or in darker places like inside the garage or under your deck. Indoors, regular house cleaning should provide suitable spider control but here are a few measures for keeping the spiders out: lots of vacuuming, prevent clutter buildup, remove spiders and spider webs outside, and spiders found indoors – squash them or capture them and release them outdoors.
